What we collect
- No account, no forms. You can read the whole site without giving us any personal data.
- Emails you send us. If you contact us, we use your email address and message only to reply, and delete them when they are no longer needed.
- Server logs. The site is hosted on Cloudflare, which processes technical data such as IP addresses to deliver pages and protect the site against attacks. See Cloudflare’s privacy policy.
Cookies
Our fonts are served from our own domain and the site search runs in your browser, so no third party receives your data when you search the site. We don’t use advertising cookies.
Google Analytics, only with your consent. We use Google Analytics 4, provided by Google Ireland
Limited, to count visits and see which guides are read, so we can improve them. On your first visit, a
banner asks for your consent. If you accept, Google Analytics sets the cookies _ga and _ga_<ID>,
which last up to two years. If you reject, or haven’t chosen yet, no analytics cookies are set. Google’s
Consent Mode may still send Google basic signals without cookies or identifiers, such as that a page
was viewed.
Google Analytics doesn’t log or store IP addresses. Google may process the data in the United States, under the EU–US Data Privacy Framework. The legal basis is your consent (Article 6(1)(a) GDPR). You can change your choice at any time with the “Cookie settings” link at the bottom of every page. If you withdraw your consent, we delete the analytics cookies from your browser.
Affiliate links
When you click an affiliate link (links starting with /go/), you are sent to a partner such as Booking.com or GetYourGuide. The partner may set cookies to record that you came from us, under its own privacy policy. We don’t receive your personal data or booking details, only anonymous commission reports. See our affiliate disclosure.
Your rights
Under the GDPR you can ask us to access, correct or delete personal data we hold about you, and object to or restrict its processing. Email us to use these rights. You can also complain to your national data protection authority.
Trip cost calculator
If you leave the box ticked in our trip cost calculator, we store the settings you chose (travellers, nights, month, travel style, sights) and the result, together with the UTC day, the page language and your country code. We store no name, email address, IP address, cookie or other identifier, so the answers cannot be linked to you. We use them to publish aggregated figures, such as what visitors plan to spend. The data is stored with Cloudflare. Untick the box to opt out: the calculator works the same.
Contact form
If you use the contact form, we store your name, email address, the topic, the page link if you add one, your message and the date, together with the page language. We use them only to reply to you, keep them for as long as needed to deal with your message, and do not share them. We store no IP address. The data is stored with Cloudflare, and the message may also reach us by email. To keep spam out, the form uses Cloudflare Turnstile, which checks that you are a person without asking you to solve a puzzle; Cloudflare processes technical data such as your IP address for this check.
Videos
Some guides include YouTube videos. Nothing is loaded from YouTube until you press play. Then the video comes from YouTube’s privacy-enhanced domain (youtube-nocookie.com), and YouTube (Google) may process technical data such as your IP address and set cookies under its own privacy policy. If you prefer, use the “Watch on YouTube” link under each video.
Changes
We will update this page when our practices change, and show the date of the last update.
